I was the only one working out, so I scrapped my plans and did a few laps around the marching band skillet and mixture of LBCs, merkins, merkins against the brick post, and bench dips.

Soundtrack: Amazon Music Playlist: ”F3 30/30 Cindy Lauper”

For the second 30 minutes, Cherry Pie showed up and we chatted over some coffee.

WARMUP: SSH / Burpees /
THE THANG: Mosey around the school down the front sidewalk and around to the loading dock. Found a huge tire and did partner roll ups with merkins after each shove up the smaller hill. Mosey over to the cinder blocks with hill carries. Carry the blocks down the hill then turn and back up stopping at each cone to do a burpee. Drop the blocks and go back down the hill to roll the big tire back up the hill. Finish out with a run up to white st and back down to the loading dock and back to COT to get the 2 miles in.

We are encouraged each year to choose our “one word” – the word that will guide our intentions, hopes, and maybe changes. This year I chose “stand.” There are times I will need to stand up for those without a voice. To stand firm in my beliefs and convictions. To stand out from my peers. But also, to stand down when the battle is not mine to fight. To me, stand represents who I will be when the pressure increases.

I encourage you to find your word – a word that will challenge you to do what you know needs to be done. Let it motivate you to stay the course when life gets hard. It’s a simple exercise that may pay huge dividends.

Aye!
